Two New York Table Princes.

Larry Jerome is not eminent in politics
or finance, has never held notable pub
lie position and his wealth is limited, yet
when he arrived from England yesterday
the whole town began to gossip and today
there are interviews in the papers col
umns in length. 1t would puzzle an out
slider to account for Larry Jerome's prom
inence. No recent arrival has attracted
so much attention. Beside him the ST.
amese princes, the Duke of Marlborough,
Sir Lyon Playfair and all the other nObil-
tiles fade out of sight. Larry Jerome
dwarfs them all. The explanation is
simple: He's a diner out and a mighty
one at that. His presence at table in
sures the success of the entertainment.
Wherever he goes he is eagerly sought
after on account of his jollity, wit and
humOr. I've known John w. Mackay
and Roscoe Conkling to wander about the
uptown cafes for hours trying to find Je-
rome or Tom Ochiltree so as to carry them
off to dinner.
A more beautiful and touching sight
than these four gentlemen around the fes-
tive board it would be impossible to i'm
agine. I've seen them in the now defunct
Carleton club when even the walters were
impressed by the air of geniality and good
fellowship that lowered over the table
Ochiltree was benign, rOtund, gloomy
fiery and joyous; Mackay silent ant
bright eyed, smiling with intense amuse
ment Conkling dignifed, but quizzica
and bright, and Larry jerome amiable
easy, quick as flash at repartee, brim
ming over with infectious fun-in a word
himself Ochiltree's fame is still grow
ing and he owes it all to his social quail
ties. Like jerome, he is short, stout anC

Beauty in Brindisi.

The colors of Brindisi, like its latitude,
are south tropical. Even on a dull day
we could enjoy the olives and pinks and
light greens and grays Of the houses. At
a distance they are white, but close at
hand the illusion goes. Then the dress Of
the people is as vivid as the tone of their
lustrOus skin or their fine black eyes.
The men, for the most part, go about in
blue blOuses, with little or nothing under
Meath; but the women cOruscate with
necklets of metal and glass, and are as
gay as rainbows besides in parti colOred
cotton and wool. The lasses lOvSd being
sketched moreover. They stuck their
plump arms akimbO, set themselves well
on their legs and stood like things Of
brass as long as they were asked to stand.
1t was pretty again to see them in the
market place, sitting in the midst Of great
heaps Of vivid oranges. But as hucksters
they are q little importunate, and it is
not every man that would feel at ease
with the arms of a siren beautiful as Gle
| Opatra tight around his neck, beseeching
him to buy. Again, not every one can
| admire the association Of tobacco and
| beauty; and yet some Of these pretty girls

The Art Of Converting.

The reason why many who converse are
dull, is our fault, not theirs; our bearing,
because we have not learned the art Of
patiently listening, restraints and embar-
raises them. Were we more respectful
and benevolent, the tongue Of the one
speaking would disentangle itself, and
give us many treasures of head and heart.
Hence, in conversing, we should never
seem to feel toward the one speaking that
we are perfectly acquainted with every
thing he is saying or can say; that kills
his glow, and we shall shortly have for
companion n stick or stone.
Hence, also, when our interiors are
speaking, we should never put words into
their lips. Start the mass Of men; then,
while the glow and flow are upon them,
preserve a dead silence; you will shortly
have poured into your ears all the best
things they know. When you have given
even an uneducated, if intelligent, man
the impression that you have become his
interested listener, he will give you valu-
able thoughts not found in your books and
schools. With the utmost magnanimity
we must tolerate occasional dullness and
learn to listen for profit, if not from prin-
ciple. The self denial involved, or the dis
cOveries made, will, at length, convert
the hours talk into an hour charged at
least with discipline, and perhaps with the
most serviceable information. "When
man ceases not the exchange of civilities, y
says the Chinese prOverb, 'there is moth
ing he may not possess. Wise, too, is
the Turkish prOverb: "Many are ignorant
through want of knowledge how to lis
ten" When in doubt, therefore, one will
do well to inquire the way of everybody
he meets; for at least every other man,
though in humble life, has a clew, or a
cross cut, or some item of information of
which we are iEnOrant.-Profes II Towns
